I've proposed that all of the Byakko Seishi be merged into one article - you can contribute to the discussion here: Wikipedia:Fiction/Noticeboard#Byakko_Seishi_Merging - Malkinann ( talk) 21:48, 3 February 2008 (UTC)
In this article, Yang, Sandy (2000-10-25). "Girl Power Make Up—The Beginning of Shoujo in the US". Akadot. Digital Manga, Inc. Retrieved 2007-01-18., a VIZ employee says that he reckons Fushigi Yuugi was successful because of Sailor Moon. D'you think this is relevant to the FY article? - Malkinann ( talk) 04:41, 13 April 2008 (UTC)
I've noticed a lot of character pages, which have limited information or mostly plot summary centered around the character named, and their statistics. Most of these pages could be merged into the character page for Fushigi Yuugi rather than standalone pages, which could eventually be deleted. This applies not only to the characters of the original Fushigi Yugi series, but also the few that have sprung up for Genbu Kaiden. 142.58.82.39 ( talk) 22:36, 25 June 2008 (UTC)
I have tagged Fushigi Yūgi Eikoden for merging into this article. There is no valid reason for that OVA to have a standalone article that I can see. It is nothing but a mass of plot with one minor line of reception. Plot summary goes in the episode list. -- AnmaFinotera ( talk · contribs) 07:06, 26 December 2008 (UTC)
So exactly what in WP:SEEALSO precludes the addition of links to similar series? One of the main points of Wikipedia is that it allows linking to relevant and related material. As both of these series are based on the same legends, I don't see an issue here. AnmaFinotera obviously does. ··· 日本穣 ? · Talk to Nihonjoe 18:26, 26 April 2009 (UTC)
I really don't see the need for a new article for the books. But if they doesn't look so good here they could always be moved to where the volumes are listed.-- Refuteku ( talk) 08:14, 7 October 2009 (UTC)
The production section is weird. It doesn't seem like it has anything to do with the production of the manga or why it was created and subsequent anime, etc. And there is a character list missing. Could someone add that and out links to a character section? Also reception is very POV... It's all "Fushigi Yuugi was bad." It should be more balanced.-- Hitsuji Kinno ( talk) 14:31, 12 October 2009 (UTC)

Fushigi Yūgi → Fushigi Yûgi — This is the actual, official English release name, per the covers of the books themselves. Per WP:NAME, we should use it, not the editor preferred version of Fushigi Yūgi and it should go under the full-title, rather than a partial. Previous discussions have claimed that "ū" is correct and that Viz just miswrote it, however, Viz Media IS the official licensor of the title, and they get to choose what macron system is used, not Wikipedia editors. Per guidelines, even if it is "wrong", it is the official title and what should be used, same as it is not our place to correct a misspelling in any other book title. If consensus agrees, all sub-articles should also be moved to reflect the proper title. —-- AnmaFinotera ( talk · contribs) 03:47, 30 December 2009 (UTC)
Comment so what is the verdict? Rename or no rename? Thanks -- KrebMarkt 10:30, 19 January 2010 (UTC)
User:Calathan wrote on my talk-page:
I see that you've tried to change a sentance in Fushigi Yûgi to not use passive voice a few times now. I think the wording you are trying to use just sounds unnatural. While passive voice should be avoided when the actor in a sentance is the important part of the sentance, in this case the Fushigi Yûgi manga is the focus of the article and the focus of this sentance, so it makes more sense to word the sentance in passive voice. Also, it seems unnatural to say that Shōjo Comic published the manga, as Shogakukan in the publisher (i.e. Shogakukan published Fushigi Yûgi in Shōjo Comic). I also noticed that you listed WP:Weasel as a reason not to use passive voice, but WP:Weasel was just about making who did things clear when it would otherwise be unclear, and doesn't apply to this case where who is doing the publishing is obvious.

I've removed the unsourced section from the article. Specifically: "Megumi Nishizaki gained the inspiration to write the novel Eikou Den after a meeting with Watase and hearing her proposal of a story-idea in which Miaka gathers the re-incarnated Suzaku Seven. However, Nishizaki regarded Miaka's story as complete, so she invented a new character, Mayo Sakaki, intending her as someone whom people love to hate and to whom they can relate. Many regard Mayo as an evil type of person, but she is very soft on the inside citation needed. Nishizaki saw Mayo as representing all of the weakness in human character. She appears single-minded to the point of recklessness, impulsive, jealous, and bitter - but at heart she is a good person. Nishizaki points out that due to all of the hardships she has faced, she has become very jaded, and it takes meeting the Suzaku Seven to realize her innocence again."
This seems to contain some OR and it is contentious. I've removed it for now, I need to work on other parts of the article to get it up to snuff. ChrisGualtieri ( talk) 17:08, 21 January 2014 (UTC)
Corrected wording referring to a table not present on this page; wording used was same/similar to wording on the "List of Fushigi Yûgi chapters" page, where the referenced table is present. T3021 ( talk) 17:45, 28 July 2014 (UTC)

I've cut the character descriptions way down to what I feel is an appropriate length. IMO the supporting characters could be cut completely, but I don't want to do that w/o putting it out there first. Whether the supporting cast is cut or not, who would like to finish performing the actual merger? Just Another Cringy Username ( talk) 02:35, 26 July 2022 (UTC)
